In the first leg, both competitors met on Prague soil. In the Generali Arena a lively buzz developed from the very beginning. The big chances of scoring were missed at first. Shortly before the break, the guests managed the not undeserved tour through Tchouameni. At the same time, it went into the half-time break. The second round involved a duel at eye level, with the visitors spraying more danger in front of the opponent’s goal. After 59 minutes, German Kevin Volland scored 2-0 for Monaco. The meeting was decided. There should be no more gates. The Monegasques have secured a very good starting position for the upcoming second leg.
For Monaco, it was the first game of the Champions League. This was completed with a clear victory over Sparta Prague. It is now time to build on this performance in the second leg. Last year, Monaco was not represented at the international level, as it was only able to finish ninth in the league. The performances under coach Nico Kovac last season were significantly increased. After Lille and PSG, the Monegassen ended up in third place.
The entry into the new season is to be viewed with mixed feelings. On the first day of the match, a 1-1 draw was drawn against Nantes in front of the home team. One point won is enough for the 7th place in the league table at this point in time.
Monaco invested 34.5 million euros in new players during the summer break in order to be able to continue playing at the front. First and foremost, the midfielder Myron Boadu of AZ Alkmaar should be mentioned. He changed for 17 million euros. The services of Jean Lucas (Lyon) cost the Monegasques eleven million euros. Furthermore, Ismail Jakobs was brought in by 1. FC Köln for 6.5 million euros. Nübel would be borrowed from Munich.

Sparta Prague has already passed a lap in the Champions League qualification. It was played against SK Rapid. After a 1-2 victory in the first leg, a clear 2-0 victory in the second leg ensured the team’s entry into the next qualifying round. There, the first leg was lost 0-2 to Monaco in front of home ground. The signs of progress are very bad.
Last season, Sparta Prague played in the Europa League. In group H there was not much to be gained against Milan, Lille and Celtic. In the end, it was enough for third place. Nevertheless, the exit was sealed.
The Czech first division has already resumed operations. Three matchdays were contested and all three were won by Sparta Prague. Nine looted points are enough for the place in the sun at this time. But Monaco is probably of a completely different caliber.
Sparta spent €3.8 million on new players during the summer break. David Hancko from AC Florence is the most expensive newcomer with a fixed fee of 2.5 million euros.
